I live in New Zealand and went on holiday to Nelson in , from where I purchased a bottle of the locally produced Limoncello. Then for some reason I stopped drinking it. Absolute Heaven! I made my lemoncello but accidentally put in my simple syrup at the same time as my vodka. I let it sit a few months and then took out the rinds but wonder if it is safe to drink? Is the taste test the only method to use? Thank you.
Can Limoncello Go Bad or Expire? The Longer Answer Quite accidentally, I am able to give a pretty solid answer to this question from experience. Remnants of Batch 4. Batch 4 Remnants cont. David W. Bates November 23, Leave a Comment: Cancel.

It is made from the zest of lemons then mixed with syrup and vodka to give this liqueur its distinct flavor. You can serve it neat and chilled or use it to level up the flavors of your cocktails and martinis.
If you want to stock up on these lemon drinks and you're thinking of putting them in the freezer, liquor experts say that commercially made limoncello will last in the freezer for up to 2 years while homemade versions of this drink will stay good for up to 12 months. This is as long as your Limoncello is properly sealed.
If it's not secured with a stopper, it will lose its flavor and won't be a delight to drink anymore. Limoncello is best served chilled that's why it's understandable why some people would like to keep it in the freezer.
But producers of this well-loved liqueur drink say that there's no need to keep it in the freezer to extend its shelf life.
It contains some preservatives which will make the drink last longer even when kept only at room temperature. Having said this, it's best to keep your lemon liqueur in your pantry so better make room if you want to stock up on these lemon drinks. When you plan to serve your bottles of limoncello after dinner, you can put them in the freezer several hours prior so you can serve them chilled.
But this doesn't mean that you can't keep your limoncello in the freezer. Take note that those types of liquor with a proof of or higher can be kept in the freezer and they won't totally freeze into a solid block of liquor drink. This makes them ready for serving anytime the need arises. We all know that alcohol has a lower freezing point than water.

Fiore Winery, in northcentral Maryland, sells this. One beverage I didn't get to open this past weekend was the Limoncello, and not because I didn't eat enough to require the lemon liqueur that's traditionally consumed in Italy as an after-dinner digestivo. But knowing I have the bottle had me thinking how to store it and how to drink what's in it. How long will it keep? Once it's opened, is there a way to close it backup and keep it longer?
If made with alcohol that is proof or higher, it may also be stored in the freezer. High levels of sugar and alcohol allow limoncello to keep at room temperature without the need for refrigeration. To make the concoction, the zest yellow parts of the peels of several lemons are infused in vodka for two to six weeks. The vodka takes on the flavor and color of the lemon zest.
After the infusing time, the lemon peels are strained out and a simple syrup made with sugar and water is added to the alcohol. The limoncello is then usually aged for at least a month before serving.
Keep limoncello in the refrigerator if you plan on serving it soon. You want the liqueur to be thoroughly chilled when you drink it. But if you have extra bottles of limoncello or will be giving them as gifts rather than drinking them right away, it is perfectly fine to store them at room temperature.
Just remember to let your gift recipients know to refrigerate their limoncello before serving it.
